Working with Wormganix, a producer of worm castings, Veolia has recycled three tonnes of spent coffee grounds, the equivalent of 420,000 single shot coffees. The Wormganix unique method feeds worms a mixture of paper pulp and spent coffee grounds that they digest to produce a nutrient rich fertiliser such as humus or vermicompost, that contains beneficial microbes, fungi, and bacteria that improves soil health.<\/p>\n<p>The UK enjoys nearly 98 million cups of coffee per day generating over 250,000 tonnes of spent coffee ground waste annually in the process. If treated properly, spent coffee grounds have the potential to improve soil health, due to being naturally rich in nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus. This trial aims to assess the viability of a new low carbon natural solution for disposing of spent coffee grounds, which could also aid in reducing reliance on artificial fertilisers that are high in chemicals.<\/p>\n<p>The trial sits alongside Starbucks\u2019 other food waste initiatives to tackle coffee ground waste. The business has already been taking advantage of the natural fertilisation properties of coffee grounds via their Grounds For Your Garden scheme, where stores across the UK donate bags of used coffee grounds to customers to use in their gardens. Starbucks also supports businesses with innovative food waste ideas via The Eat It Up Fund, a partnership between Starbucks and environmental charity, Hubbub.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.recycling-magazine.com\/2024\/11\/20\/using-worms-to-recycle-used-coffee-grounds-into-fertiliser\/\">Recycling Magazine<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-628\/\">Using worms to recycle used coffee grounds into fertiliser<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[11441,575,764,17015],"class_list":["post-135539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-coffee-grounds","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-recycling","tag-worms"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=135539"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/135539\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=135539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=135539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=135539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
